It's always been a Disney-owned studio that made R-Rated movies, but I don't think any R-rated movie starts off with the Disney logo.

Duke is obsessed with R-rated Disney. At this point, I don't think he'll be satisfied until he sees Minnie Mouse's tits.
Marvel movies don’t start with the Disney logo.
Wasn’t there already confirmation that Black Widow is rated R?
Just rumors. Keep in mind Venom was rumored to be rated R too.
BTW, i would go see Minnie Mouse's tits.
They might not display their logo before Marvel movies, but they might as well. Any IP that Disney adds to its theme parks (Marvel, LucasFilm) will be naturally associated with the overall brand. Disney knows this.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
There's some clever match-cutting here.
Looks like Spidey’s officially out:
Here comes Spidey v Venom: Dawn of Just Us
The severed arm perfectly acquitted itself, because of the simplicity of its wishes and its total lack of doubt.
Disney: "Its ok Kevin, we have [insert deep pull Marvel character no normie ever heard of]."
*5 minutes later*
A billion dollars
I am fairly certain they will work something out. Disney overplayed their hand and Sony called them on it. They've put waaay too much into building Peter Parker as Tony's successor to just give up on the character.

Wonder what kind of contract Holland had.

Six picture dealQuoting Ezee E (view post)
I dont see this as a big deal for Disney. They may have asked for the moon but they have the track record and team to execute on it. Far From Home will be the highest grossing Sony film ever. As Skitch said, Disney has 37 other characters they can plug in and fast track if they want. It's too bad as it looks like they were trying to work something out for D23. It also would have been cool to see what the implications are during the ending of Far From Home in the MCU, but life goes on.
The original Deadline headline and article are so poorly written that at first glance I thought this meant no more Spider-man. But it sounds as if Sony is confident going alone and will make more sequels now that Marvel has done the heavy work.
I'd like to know the details on the original deal, like who paid for "Homecoming" and "Far From Home." Deadline's article implied Marvel footed the bill and received little in return.
Disney can promote another obscure character and it'll be fine, I guess, but that's also how we wound up with 2 "Ant-Man" films. Feige can make anything a "success," at least by the standards of the trades, but will anybody in the audience be excited about it?
I mean, this is how mainstream Spider-man is, and has been for decades: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ml-I3QwNLY
I think this matters and it's on executive minds because name recognition ties into advertising costs, ie promoting a new character is more expensive than promoting one that's already a household name.
Wow, that's a head scratcher. I mean, say what you will about the vastness of the Marvel universe, but after Far From Home, Peter Parker was understandably set up to be a major player on Phase 3. I wonder where this leaves Watts and Holland.
Also, which studio was mainly responsible for Spider-Verse?
Sony.Quoting Grouchy (view post)
The severed arm perfectly acquitted itself, because of the simplicity of its wishes and its total lack of doubt.
So all this work to make Spidey the new Iron Man / central figure of the MCU was for nothing?
This was (uncharacteristically) very poorly planned.
Peter Parker was way too young to replace Tony Stark guys. If anything they can do something with Black Panther or Shuri now as the new Tony Stark. Also, don't count out the introduction of Ironheart.
The fact that there are fans organizing boycotts on Sony’s future film projects and clamoring for Disney to purchase their film studios just to put Spider-Man back in the MCU is equal parts idiotic, frightening and sad.
If this results in anything bad happening to Sony, Hollywood should just close up shop and start over.

Black Panther and Captain Marvel are probably the new face of MCU, at least until the new X-Men come in.
Out of everything in 2019, this surprises me the least. It's not even worth discussing.Quoting Ivan Drago (view post)
It's also been reported (somewhere I can't find it now) that Feige had some involvement with the Venom movie and that apparently it was a train-wreck long before the final cut was made.
Oh i found it:
"When contacted by io9, a Sony representative said it’s their belief this dispute is simply over a producer credit and negotiations are ongoing. They further clarified that Feige has contributed to other Spider-centric movies that he did not receive a producer credit on."

I think it's more about RDJ. He was a huge draw. (I'm waiting to see if my pet theory comes true: That the MCU is nothing without Downey Jr, surrounded by the original cast, and interest in these movies will drop now that he's finally exited the franchise.)Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Only if Ava Duvernay replaces Kevin Feige as the head of Marvel Studios.
Uh ... yeah. Who?
Ironheart is the young female Iron Man introduced in the comics a couple of years back.
And Duke - regarding Spidey’s age, I’m not saying he was going to replace Stark as the leader of the team. I’m saying it very much seemed like they were setting him up to take the Stark mantle and perhaps be the face of the overall franchise.
